4.9.14

– The death of GOD – the silence, absence, passivity, weakness, folly, defeat & end of GOD!

The Devil has been finished by the Cross too. So now it’s just man & the world……

– Religion – a man’s challenge is spiritual independence from (his) GOD,

Marriage – the woman’s challenge is sexual independence from (her) man.

– Sexuality – from purity/fidelity/abstinence to adventure/continence/moderation

– Variety, novelty & challenge in spirituality/sexuality,

And singularity/consistency/focus in psychology/sociality.

Or should it be the other way around?

– The opposite of every great truth is also equally true!

– Political correctness

Vs.

Moral rectitude

– Simplicity, integrity, wisdom, compassion & courage.

I am weakest in compassion. Right?

– Silence, solitude & stillness = intimacy with GOD.

Sounds like a negative definition. But how can anything positive be said of such a deep mystery??

– Joe, do you really want to open yourself up in public like this?

Why should I not?

– Which is worse:

Being deaf or dumb?

Being blind or lame?

– Theology: Extra-biblical » unbiblical » anti-biblical!

Hmmm…… I follow the road (‘the Way’?) wherever it leads. Wherever.

– The GOD of the philosophers.

The GOD of the moralists.

The GOD of the religionists.

Is HE there??

From philosophy to critical theory.

From moralism to libertarianism.

From religion to mysticism.

– Am I just a figment of somebody else’s imagination?

Do I have a choice?

– Chimera
